Dragonsong (from Final Fantasy XIV: HEAVENSWARD)

Children of the land, do you hear

Echoes of truths that once rang clear?

Two souls intertwined

One true love they did find

Bringing land and heavens near

But flames that burned full bright, soon fell dark

Memories dimmed by shadowed hearts

In the waxing gloom, did wane the lovers' moon

Watching as their worlds drift apart

One soul's cry, a passion dwelling within

Sacrifice, a final plea to her kin

Yet this bond of hope, by treachery was broke

Scattering her words to the wind

Swelling over long

Seas of blood are a song

And death an afterthought

To those who fight for naught

A throne lying empty

A reign incomplete

Alone for eternity

A pain without cease

Children of the land, answer this

Why must you turn to empty bliss?

Tell me why break trust, why turn the past to dust

Seeking solace in the abyss?

Tell me why create a circle none can break?

Why must you let go, the life you were bestowed?

This I fear I'll never know

Never know
